Private Redemption was launched over a decade ago, by Emanuel Bat Joshoua, Founder and President of the non-profit organization, with the help of a number of important business professionals including Rabbi Dudi Zilbershlag and Jeffrey Rohatiner. Since its introduction, the organization has played a significant role in the transformation of the Los Angeles Jewish Community. It has now expanded its reach to Israel where it continues its mission to care for women, children, the elderly and the infirm; individuals who are facing imminent eviction or who lack some of the basic necessities. Private Redemption has turned hopelessness and desperation into new beginnings for thousands. By providing programs and tools that empower those who find themselves broken financially and emotionally, the organization has helped them to become self-sufficient.
The Board is now looking to Mr. Rollman to inspire and direct Private Redemption to new milestones in the coming years. His involvement and expressed vision brings the promise of fresh ideas to reinvigorate the organization’s stated mission and to help raise the bar on the work done in response to the needs within the Jewish community. Whether it is addressing the issue of homelessness, poverty, joblessness or hunger, Board members are looking forward to Eric’s influence, his new approach, and his full involvement in helping them reach new heights.
